* Taiwan dollar hits more than three-week low * Thailand baht emerges outlier among Asian FX * Japan's Nikkei hits 34-year high (Updates at 0640 GMT) By Archishma Iyer Jan 15 (Reuters) - The Taiwan dollar hit a more than three-week low on Monday even as equities rose following the victory of the country's Democratic Progressive Party in the presidential election, while Thailand's baht advanced the most since mid-December. Taiwan's currency fell about 0.4%, hitting its lowest level since Dec. 21 at 31.284 per dollar, while its stocks climbed around 0.2%. The Democratic Progressive Party's candidate Lai Ching-te won the presidency on Saturday for the third consecutive term, but the party lost its parliamentary majority.
(.) * Taiwan dollar, Malaysian ringgit lead gains * Thai baht, stocks flat after c.bank holds rates * Dollar index hits multi-month lows By Archishma Iyer Nov 29 (Reuters) - Thailand's baht and equities traded flat after its central bank stood pat on interest rates on Wednesday, while most emerging Asian currencies rose after dovish comments from a Federal Reserve official pushed the dollar to a more than three-month low. The baht was trading at 34.730 to the dollar, as of 0730 GMT after the central bank kept rates unchanged, as expected, at 2.50%, a decade-high.
(.) * Thai baht hits 10-month low * Dollar steady near 10-month high * Asia stocks largely gain * U.S. 10-year yields highest since Oct 2007 By Roushni Nair Sept 28 (Reuters) - Thailand's baht slumped to its lowest in more than 10 months on Thursday, hit by persistent worries over the country's fiscal outlook, while other Asian currencies steadied after recent losses against a rallying dollar. Several other currencies in the region managed slight gains, with the Philippine peso, China's yuan, and the Indian rupee each up 0.1%. While the rupee was propped up by likely intervention from the Reserve Bank of India, China's yuan held steady underpinned by a persistently stronger-than-expected official guidance fix.
